Let's face it, Honda-Tech is for comparing penis size, whether it's using body kits, paint jobs, engine swaps, or dyno numbers. Like Matt said, if you're willing to wade through the bickering, it contains a vastness of knowledge on swapping, wiring, power, etc.

Here is better advice. You can either download or buy the honda shop manual. I'm not talking about Chilton, I'm talking about a real Honda repair manual made for the car that engine is in. It will give you all the answers. I got one of those $20 off the shelf manuals and they are crap compared to the real thing. I had the real thing saved on my computer but it got deleted. It had every nut and bolt and everything.

You speak of the almighty HELM - visit http://www.helminc.com or see your Honda dealer for one. HELM also makes manuals for cars other than Honda too. I owe much of my Honda knowledge to HELM.

I downloaded mine (92-95 civic) here for free. Unfortunately that is after I snagged the same thing on ebay for $5.99. Oh well, live and learn. I hope someone else benefits from this link. These are very large pdf's, don't even try it with dial up. Details below....

Here you will find the Factory Honda Service Manuals for free download. These are the manuals that actual Honda mechanics use.

I have a CD with the PDF file of a full factory shop manual as well, only dial up here, it would be a few weeks befor I could get to DSL to upload it to my web space, so it would be faster for me to mail a cd. unrelated, I also have PDF of 84-87 civic and CRX, and those are one my web page.
it's to bad that your TPS is busted, I've thought about getting a use engine just for those sensors, I ended up buying a brand new TPS this winter after finding that the used one was also wore out, and no one tells you how to calibrate the TPS, nor sells new ones without the rest of the $400 throttle body, but they are the same as the civic CX uses.
I also have a hard copy of the Hayens manual.
if you have any more questions about your vx engine feel free to send me a message, I would love to get a newer CRX or del sol, and do that kind of swap someday.
